A friend asked me to make her a memory quilt for her mother-in-law who lost HER mother to cancer. The family has been participating in cancer walks in honor of the deceased for the past 12 years and my friend has saved all of her shirts. She wanted them used in the quilt. I really do love making t-shirt quilts.

The cancer walk shirts were so created. I loved reading the slogans for each year. The family did a great job picking out colors - so much so that I was able to put everything in order by year from 2004 to 2015.

My friend picked the sashing of snowmen fabric in honor of the recipient.

Welcome!

Thanks for stopping by! I've been quilting since my mother-in-law helped me make my first quilt in 1999. I spent several years drawing inspiration from books, magazines, and quilters in my local community.

When I started blogging in 2008, I discovered many wonderful quilters from around the world who are happy to share their projects. This has pushed me to further test my creativity. (I could seriously spend all day surfing through quilting blogs!)

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at nkubat (at) indiana.edu. I hope you enjoy my blog.
